Microservices - Fundamentals
Heads up! This course may be archived and/or unavailable.
In enterprise environments, the architectural style of microservices is gaining momentum. In this course, you will learn why microservices are well-suited to modern cloud environments which require short development and delivery cycles. You will learn the characteristics of microservices. You will compare the microservice architecture with monolithic style, emphasizing why microservices are well suited to continuous delivery. While microservices are more modular to develop and may look simpler, you will discovery that the complexity does not go away, it shifts. An inevitable organizational complexity comes along with many small interacting pieces. Managing, monitoring, logging, and updating microservices creates a greater operational complexity. In this course you learn about the tools necessary to successfully deploy, manage and monitor microservice based applications. After taking this course, you will have a much better understanding of why microservices are so well suited to cloud environments, the DevOps environments in which microservices run and the tools to manage the complexity that microservices bring to the operational and production environment. If you choose to take this course and earn the Coursera course certificate, you will also earn an IBM digital badge. To find out more about IBM digital badges follow the link http://ibm.biz/badging.

micro services
Good course material good Very Informative Good course to obtain start with Micro services.A few presentations were having issue with audio-video synchronization.
This is a nice course to start learning micro services Very good introduction of Microservices.
Great to see the micro services application Got a fundamental understanding of why micro services can be adopted very poor, it's not a course, it's just a list of bookmarks Pretty useful information It was a very informative course.
It is very informative and basic training provides high level overview of micro services whilst creating inquisitiveness to explore further.
Great insight on Micro services basics, excited to take further courses.

content is good
The course content is good, though I would have preferred some hands-on experience also.
The course content is good and informative but the course instructors are a little too monotonous to keep up the student engagement level very useful A good course to understand the Microservice architecture very remarkable experience for me to learn this lesson, really get something from the tests and quizzes.

very nice
Very nice course to begin with Microservices.
the only good thing I can say about this course is the 2nd module was far better developed and the 3rd seems to be similar to the 2nd module Very nice theoretical introduction to microservices, devops culture and a good overview of related topics, such as SOA, monoliths, blue-green deployment, CI/CD.
excellent program Very nice course to learn about all aspects of micro-services.
Very Nice.
Very Nice course to understand the base concepts for microservices.

second part
Week 3 lecture video need an improvement Nice and simple way to learn basic of Microservices First part of the course was better to follow (male speaker - microservices definition etc) then the second part (female speaker - devops, monoliths).
In the second part is experienced as someone reading a document and even making some mistakes.
Slides are read in the second part of the course, which can be quite ennoying.
The videos content for the first part was good, The second part videos are bad (teacher reading slides, some environment noise).
c thanks for this KT session First part is very interesting, second part is unfortunately bad presentation skills.

A nice course for beginners to learn microservices.
This course is a must for beginners to have in-depth understanding of Microservice Architecture, how it differs from Monolithic Apllications, Challenges, Istio, Service Mesh etc I have attempted the final exam a number of times in order to get the badge but am no wiser where I am failing in order to pass, would be good need to see which areas I need to focus on.
~ Well I have learned a lot of new things from this course it is a great course for beginners.

final quiz
The final quiz gives the result as a percentage with pass or fail result -- there is no way to know where I did good and where I need improvement.
The suggested readings were good (but some references are old).I really would like to ask to the authors that review and improve the quality of the final quiz!

monolithic applications
In my professional career I've only worked with monolithic applications and after completing this course I'm almost as familiar with microservices as I was with monolithic applications.
Content is great, ibm red books are good, to the point.Explains very well how to break monolithic applications into micro services .Some video have low volume, it can be improved.
